Yahoo Messenger archives?
Now, see, I'm the kinda person who likes looking at old conversations when I've got nothing to do. I'm using a Mac, and I can't seem to open my Yahoo! Messenger archives. ): How do I enable message archiving and how do I view it?
Again, guys, I said I'm using a Mac. It doesn't work the same way it does for Microsoft users. :s

First of all, you need to change your settings to save all your messages. To do this, click on "Messenger" in the top left hand corner of the Messenger Window.
Click on "Preferences".
Click on "Archive".
Click on "Yes, Save all of my Messages".
Click on "Apply" at the bottom followed by "OK".
Once you have chosen to save all your messages, they are stored in your archive until you delete them. To see your messages:~
Click on "Messenger".
Click on "Preferences".
Click on "Archive".
Click on "View Archive".
Then click on the person's name whose messages you want to read.

when you're on messenger, you go to contacts. then click message archive. when you get there press message. click preferences.. you can set it so it saves all your conversations.. if you didn't have it set to save them already, they aren't saved..
Hope i helped.
